Bohemian Vintage Jewellery

I have been working on a few new designs, below is what I am calling Bohemian Vintage.

You will have to forgive my artsy photo's. My laptop died last week and I bought a Microsoft Surface Tablet... a mix between android with apps and Microsoft with Windows 8. I have PhotoShop Express on it, so I had to play around with it. I do like the effect.

A Little Bit of History and New Designs

Wow, can't believe it has been a while since I posted on this Blog.

My life has changed a little over the past 5 weeks. I resigned from my job over 5 weeks ago - various reasons why. One of the main ones was, I was diagnosed with Fibro Myalgia at the end of last year after being pretty crappy health-wise. The other main reason was that my role at work was changing and it wasn't going to fit with the illness.

So I decided to take a bit of a leap off the cliff and resign, and not work for a couple of months. To get my health as on track as I can and have a good crack at my jewellery business.

So it is over 5 weeks into this. Can't believe how fast it has gone. I am finally getting used to not feeling like I have to be doing something all the time (I was a bit of a workaholic and perfectionist).

On a much lighter not - it's my Birthday tomorrow!!! WOOOOOHOOOOO ... just don't ask my age!

I do have Birthday Sales happening at my Jewellery and Bead Etsy Stores. So if you want anything this is a great time to get it.

So what have I been working on?????? Below are some of my new designs.

Single Wrap Bronze and Luster Bracelet

Turtles, Seahorses and Other Things

One of my favourite jewellery component designers is Lesley Watt - The Gossiping Goddess. She uses Metal Clay and I have bought quite a few pieces from her  (OK I have bought a LOT), but I think you will agree what she designs is amazing and I want to own personally everything I have bought.....

Below are a few that I have made into Necklaces and also a glimpse of the ones not yet made into Necklaces.

All these necklaces are on the same beads - Indian Summer Picasso 10/0 Seeded Beads

Shades of Green Medallion

Seahorse

Starfish

Turtle (I do personally own one of these ones!)

PICTURE of remaining purchases...... So many possibilities. If you see anything you like, let me know and I can make it into something special.

I think you will agree with me that Lesley's work is amazing, beautiful and every other adjective you can think of.

Everything on this Blog is For Sale, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like a piece of jewellery.
